It香蕉视频直播檚 a match made in heaven.

At least Vernon thought so after the Vernon Public Art Gallery香蕉视频直播檚 Pinot and Paint night won best new event for last year香蕉视频直播檚 . And they香蕉视频直播檙e bringing the pinot and paintbrushes back Feb. 6.

香蕉视频直播淲e made the commitment that we want it to continue to be part of Winter Carnival,香蕉视频直播� said VPAG executive director Dauna Kennedy Grant.

Now in its second year, Pinot and Paint brings in two local artists sought out by the gallery, James Postill and Jackie Harris, to lead participants in a wine-fuelled evening with the end goal of crafting a painting inspired by Salvador Dali香蕉视频直播檚 monumental and whimsical piece, The Persistence of Memory.

香蕉视频直播淏ased on the theme of Winter Carnival (Alice in Wonderland), we picked this piece by Salvador Dali,香蕉视频直播� Kennedy Grant said. 香蕉视频直播淭he surrealist movement was about bringing dreams to real life.香蕉视频直播�

Marketing and programming coordinator Laura Ashton agreed.

香蕉视频直播淚 think this work is very accessible and grandiose,香蕉视频直播� Ashton said of The Persistence of Memory, adding that it is likely the Spanish surrealist香蕉视频直播檚 most well-known painting.

香蕉视频直播淚t will be interesting to see how different the pieces will be because of the two leading artists,香蕉视频直播� Kennedy Grant added, noting that the overall piece will be largely the same, with detailed variances appearing in aspects such as colour palettes and methods of attack.

Backed by the Winter Carnival and armed with one of the most influential works of the 20th century, the purpose of VPAG香蕉视频直播檚 Pinot and Paint is twofold: supporting a longtime Vernon tradition and generating an interest in art.

香蕉视频直播淚 think it香蕉视频直播檚 a less intimidating way to approach art for those who don香蕉视频直播檛 necessarily have an art background,香蕉视频直播� Kennedy Grant said.

However, Kennedy Grant said, educated art enthusiasts can have just as much fun with Pinot and Paint.

香蕉视频直播淚t香蕉视频直播檚 more about the experience than the final result,香蕉视频直播� Ashton said.

And it香蕉视频直播檚 an experience that left an impact from last year香蕉视频直播檚 event, with tickets selling out in record time. Participants are supplied with a canvas and required materials and have the opportunity to bring their creation home at the end of the evening.

香蕉视频直播淲e香蕉视频直播檙e just happy to be a part of Winter Carnival again,香蕉视频直播� Kennedy Grant said.

While they may not be able to win best new event again at the 58th annual Vernon Winter Carnival, one thing is for sure: the Vernon Public Art Gallery is ready to host a lively evening of painting and pinot (gris and noir) fun.
